The Melbourne Victory will play the Socceroos behind closed doors on Saturday.
For Pim Verbeek, the friendly allows him another chance to watch his selection of A-League players before finalising his squad for the Qatar match.
It’s not clear who Archie Thompson, Rodrigo Vargas and Kevin Muscat will play for, considering they are all still up for a spot in the Socceroos, but you’d expect that Ernie Merrick will give some of his young blood an opportunity to impress - Nathan Elasi in particular.

G’day! I am writing because I couldn’t get on the Melbourne Victory forum.Basically I live in Osaka and have done for 13 years..I know the area around Banpaku stadium very well and was wondering if I could be of any assistance in giving advice on anything Japanese to the Victory fans travelling for the ACL.
I am a Jets fan but I am definitely going to be there cheering MV on on the day.If you feel this is a worthy idea then let me know..I would be happy to help in any way.

Hey Dazza.^^^
1-1 draw, DiLizia (wanted by Roma / Fiorentina last I heard) and two guys called Sivic and Hatszikostas trialing… Anyone know any background on the two latter?

Dazza,
What are the drinking options around Banpaku Stadium like? Would the travelling Victory fans be best meeting for a few beers in central Osaka before heading out or are there pubs close to the stadium?
Any info would be great.
